many of us don't realize that our farms,kitchens and gardens are filled with natural remedies that can provide effective relief from fever and cough without the potential side effects of drugs from the chemist.

One of the simplest ways to reduce fever is to
eat ginger and garlic. Ginger is known for helping lower inflammation, which is a body response associated with fever. Some studies report that garlic has anti-viral benefits.
Add garlic to a soup or pour hot water over a slice of fresh ginger root to make a drink.
